The interfacing process includes some key factors to match with the memory requirements and
microprocessor signals when we are executing any instruction, we need the microprocessor to access
the memory for reading instruction codes and the data stored in the memory.

A: Memory Interfacing

We need to interface the keyboard and other devices with the microprocessor by using latches and
buffers. This type of interfacing is known as?

A: IO Interfacing

There are two ways of communication in which the microprocessor can connect with the outside world.

A: Series and Parallel Communication Interface

What is the difference between the two?

A: Serial Communication Interface − In this type of communication, the interface gets a single byte of
data from the microprocessor and sends it bit by bit to the other system serially and vice-a-versa.

Parallel Communication Interface − In this type of communication, the interface gets a byte of data from
the microprocessor and sends it bit by bit to the other systems in simultaneous (or) parallel fashion and
vice-a-versa

2 HARD

1.What mode when the processor is requested service only if any key is pressed, otherwise the CPU will
continue with its main task.

A: Interrupt mode

2. This mode deals with display-related operations. This mode is further

classified into two output modes.
A: Output Mode
